Couple Sees UFO

Date: January 23, 1949

Location: Pleasant Valley, OR

Burt Leckington and wife while driving S on Hwy 101, about 1/4 to 1/2 mile SE of Pleasant Valley, saw a shiny, silvery, round stationary object about 10' to 15' size glinting in the sun to the SE at about 35° elevation about 500' or 2,000' height about 1/2 to 3/4 mile away.

When he went inside his shop to get binoculars the object disappeared. No sound or trail.

Mr. Smith in Tillamook saw for about 1 min the polished silver saucer shaped object reflecting sunlight nearly overhead at 45° elevation stationary at first about 1,000' to 2,000' altitude, angular size of full moon, then moving NE at about 30-50 mph.
